I rememeber my days playing the coleco fondly. Back then I had the weirdest, most chunky cool video game system of all my friends, I got handed it from friends of my parents back in like 1990, my friends and cousins had Commodore 64's and Ataris but I was happy. I had my smurf, jumpman junior, Space Fury destructor and and heaps of other, a steering wheel and accelerator.. that iset up on a TV tray with a seat .. it was great. I rememeber all u had to do to make it work if it stuffed up back then was to hit it really hard and it would work. I gave it away to a friend when I was 13 (coz I got a sega mega drive, which was like 1000 times better)or so and I think he killed it by takign my advice to literally when i said hit it if it didnt work, he got his dad to hit it with a rubber mallet. I dont think they understood how to tune it to their TV. I found this page by chance searching the net to show my mate what a colecovision was after haveing a chat and a laugh about old consoles...Theres nothing else like being 8 years old and playing video games for the first time...I havent heard anythign about them for years and years and years
